Ascent Scientific Launches mGlu7 agonist To Help Research Into Anxiety Disorders
(PRWEB) October 13, 2005 -- Ascent Scientific announced the addition of a ground-breaking new research tool to the Low-Cost Ligand range – a tool that will aid research into anxiety and stress-related disorders. The research tool is a chemical called AMN082, and it selectively activates a particular protein in the brain - the mGlu7 glutamate receptor subtype. These receptors are thought to be involved in anxiety and stress-related disorders.
Steve Roome PhD, Commercial Director commented, “We are delighted to be the first life science supplier to make this exciting research tool commercially available to the scientific community. Since the disclosure of this chemical at the recent 5th International mGlu meeting in Taormina last month, our chemists have been working tirelessly to make it available as quickly as possible.”
Iain Sandison, Science Director “The addition of AMN082 to the Low-Cost Ligand range promises to be valuable asset for scientists researching anxiety and stress-related disorders. We have made it available at a very high purity, and of course, in keeping with our philosophy to make research tools affordable for as many researchers as possible – at a very low price.”
